Ken Walker
Today I attended a ceremony dedicated to Dr. Ken Walker and him being awarded the Outstanding citizen award by USAID. I must say that he is one of the most generous, smartest and inspiring people I have ever met. If you are a in the field of medicine and you reside in the South Eastern US you more than likely heard of him.
On December 17, 2004, President of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili declared Dr. H. Kenneth Walker to be an Honorary Citizen of Georgia. The award ceremony, which was held at the State Chancellery in Tbilisi, was attended by U.S. Ambassador Richard Miles and Deputy Chief of Mission Patricia Moller as well as by Dr. Walker's Georgian counterparts. In his brief words of appreciation, Dr. Walker, who is a professor at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, said, "I’m a small man who stands on the shoulders of very tall people," pointing to his Georgian colleagues.

Gender Bias in Employment
Dear Sir or Madam:
Since the late 1960's, the womens' groups and feminists have complained publicly (and justifiably so) that the managerial and executive ranks in most corporations are almost exclusively male. They claim that this discriminatory work enviroment keeps women out of high paying, decision making positions and is unfair. Demonstrably, the womens' groups are right. Researching an accusation such as this seems silly. All one has to do is go and look. Women are disadvantaged in the employment marketplace.
However, there is a provocative and contradictory view regarding this gender bias in employment issue that is not as widely disseminated in the media but which can readily be found on the world wide web.
This view holds that those same employers excoriated by the feminists implemented hiring policies for white collar staff (in contrast to management) which gave almost all of the staff jobs to women because women not likely to be vulnerable to compulsory military service in the event of war. The employers have been doing this since 1945.
During WWII, those employers lost a lot of their staff expertise to the military as their then male white collar staffers left for the war. During the war, the women proved their employability and it was obvious they would never have the potential to be cannon fodder in future wars as their male counterparts were so at war's end the employers kept the men who were lucky enough to return from the war off staff. That is, the men coming back just were not rehired.
Male management. Female staff. The major white collar corporations structured this employment environment at the end of the Second World War. We still have the same corrupt, arbitrary employment environment today.

Does this email give you a different "take" on the gender bias in employment issue? If you find the view interesting, why not discuss it with your friends and, particularly, your colleagues. If at all possible, I have sent them a copy of this email. Further, if you or anyone that you know would like to post this email anywhere on the "web", please feel free to do so. In other words, if you like, pass it around.
